About
NΕ«xsen is a New York-based direct air capture startup founded in 2022 developing electrochemical DAC reactors with a voltage-activated sorbent instead of thermal regeneration. It was a Phase 1 semifinalist in the DOE Direct Air Capture Pre-Commercial Technology Prize and tested its sorbent at the NETL DAC Center in Pittsburgh, capturing ~2.6 g CO2 at lab scale. The company remains small (~5 employees), unfunded as of mid-2025, and has shown limited public activity since late 2024.
